Care And Cleaning; Cleaning Agents; Cleaning The Glass Panels - Siemens HB86P.75 Instruction Manual

Care and cleaning

With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain
its looks and remain good order. We will explain here how you
should care for and clean your appliance correctly.
ã=
Risk of short circuit!
Never use high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners to clean
the oven.
ã=
Risk of burns!
Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let
the appliance cool down.
Notes
Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are
■
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
■
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
■
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be
■
removed very easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup
of water. Place a spoon into the container as well, to prevent
delayed boiling. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes at
maximum microwave power.

the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
